Why can't I see my hotmail folders when using Mail on my Mac, but I can see them when I use Mail on my iPhone, weird?

I've set up Mail on my new Mac, but the folders I have set up in my Hotmail are not visible. Funny, coz I can see the folders when using Mail on my Iphone. Have I set the connection between Hotmail and my Mac incorrectly? It was very automated so I don't know what I did incorrectly. Can anyone out there give me a tip?
Cheers, Paul

    Go to the Mail app.
    Scroll down to the Accounts section.
    Select the account and folders will be accessible.

  • Why can't I open my Hotmail or MSN live emails on my mac?

    Why can't I open my Hotmail or MSN live emails on my mac? also the google pages like google map will not open
    Is this some kind of sick joke being played by APPLE for not having bought a Mac before and for daring to have a windows based email ?
    I've tried Firefox, Safari, Opera and Explorer none of them will allow the window pages to open up nor can I get Mail to open up my non yahoo emails
    I have tried to post this on the communities board several times but the question always vanishes

    So you get the log-in screen for Hotmail but it won't complete the log-in? I also take it from your posts that there is no error message that appears to give any indication of the nature of a problem, it just doesn't complete the log in? That sounds like it could be an issue with your Hotmail account. Have you tried logging onto your Hotmail account from another computer, say a computer from work? If not, then the first thing to do is try logging in from another computer. If you don't have one anywhere else, go to a public library and use one of theirs and try logging into your Hotmail.
    There is no reason why you would be blocked from Hotmail/Live, Google pages and such while other pages (such as this) are accessible unless one of a few things are happening:
    1) You don't have access to those pages because of account lock-out (that's why you need to check your ability to access Hotmail from another computer -- to verify that this is not the case).
    2) Something is actively blocking access to those pages. This could be one of a few things:
         a) ISP settings, which you seem to have eliminated when you indicate that you tried accessing Hotmail from another location than your default location, if in fact that other is connected through a different ISP, although in actual fact you did not indicate that you verified that the other access point you tried was actually connecting via another ISP.
         b) Router settings, which you did pretty much eliminate when you tried accessing Hotmail from another location than your default location.
         c) Software blocking. This could include the following:
              * Add-ins: You seem to have eliminated the likely hood of this when you indicate that you've tried multiple browsers.
              * Security software: Family blocking/URL blocking software would cause similar issues across all browsers. If you had installed anything of this nature, this would be a suspicion.
    There is one red flag I see amongst all this. You indicate that you have a Macbook Pro running OS X 10.6.7 with membership in these forums showing a start date of March this year, your posts suggest that you recently purchased a Mac, and that your prior posts have disappeared (son't know how far back you were meaning, although I do see one from 3 days ago posted in the Windows section). My question has to do with something you wrote earlier in this thread: "I've tried Firefox, Safari, Opera and Explorer". Uh, would that be Microsoft Internet Explorer? How do you have that installed?

  • I can see open tabs from my PC on my Mac, but I can't see open tabs from my Mac on my PC. Why?

    I've set up Sync on my work PC and my home MacBook.
    I can see open tabs from my PC while I'm on my Mac, but I can't see open tabs from my Mac while I'm on my PC. Why?

    Here is what I am seeing on my Android device - at the top, a few options like History > Top Sites> Bookmarks>Reading List. Then, the search/address bar, then to the right of that, a square with the number "1" inside it, then 3 dots that, when chosen, give you the following options:
    New Tab
    New Private Tab
    Request Desktop Site
    Tools
    Settings
    Any thoughts on how I specifically sync my Desktop open tabs to my Android device so I can then see all my desktop open tabs on my phone?
    Thanks!

  • Some email images do not show while using the icloud web app.  I can see the images on my IOS devices and in gmail but I only see a small gray box in the icloud web mail app.  Load HTML images is checked in preferences.

    I've seen the opposite issue.  My wife recieved an email with jpg attachments.  She couldn't see or print them on her iPhone 4S but they showed up fine in iCloud or in the mail app.  I had her forward the email to herself and then they showed up.  I assume there is an issue with how Apple is processing the attachments and resending causes them to get reformatted in a way that makes them easier to handle.
    So yeah.  Seems like some bugs.  Hope Apple fixes them soon.

    You can try using the 'official' Facebook app or Friendly For Facebook - not sure whether they work with videos.

  • Hi. I just downloaded "angry birds" from the iTunes store. It says it was successfully downloaded and that I can use it on the two mac products I have. I can see an icon for it in the finder on the mac, but I can't figure out how to play the game. Anyone?

    Thank you for your reply. After a lot of fruitless searches, I hit on a page that offered the same wisdom you did. I feel like rather a fool for not knowing that. Grr. I really appreciate your answer, and that you didn't end it with "dummy." Cheers to you. Hope someone does something kind for you today.

  • Why is Apple TV movie rentals to expensive?  I love my Apple TV, but I can go down the street and get 4 Movies for the price of one rental on Apple TV. Apple should reduce the price of movies rentals to $1.00

    Why is Apple TV movie rentals to expensive? 
    I love my Apple TV, but I can go down the street and get 4 Movies at Redbox for the price of one rental on Apple TV.
    Apple should reduce the price of movies rentals to $1.00!!!

    Forgive me if my solution to your problem is oversimplistic, but if the movies are too expensive for you, don't buy them.

  • I had an imap account in my iPad and my iPhone 4. They worked just fine till about Christmas. They act like they are checking the mail and it shows there is mail to come in, but it just goes back to saying checking mail.  Can't send mail either.

    Update to above question:
    Hello All,
    To anyone with the same problem described above, on THEIR iPad (if it is running iOS 7.0.2):
    Go to Settings; Mail, Contacts, Calendars; DELETE your *******@btinternet.com e-mail account, that you originally set up either using 'Other', or the 'BT' option which I am sure was in the list previous to the iOS 7 update.
    Then ADD a NEW account choosing YAHOO from the list of options. DO NOT USE 'OTHER'.
    Enter the correct details just as you (almost certainly) had already done in your previous attempts using 'other'.
    When you see the 'verifying......' and 'the blue ticks' you should be able to exit settings and open your mail app and then receive all your 'old' e-mails again, AND be able to SEND as well.
    All my 'old' e-mails, were NOT found in the 'old e-mail' folder though. THEY are still in my inbox.
    So this fix worked for me.
    After I deleted my account from 'OTHER' and put it in Yahoo, I like other people also ended up with more folders.
    I hope this works for you on YOUR Apple devices.
    Bob

  • I have mistakenly deleted a mail folder which I had created. Can't remember if it was located to 'iCloud' or 'On My Mac'. How can I retrieve the emails contained in this deleted folder? Your help will be immensely appreciated!

    I have mistakenly deleted a mail folder in which I had created. I can't remember if it was located to 'iCloud' or 'On My Mac'. How can I retrieve the emails contained in this deleted folder? Your help will be immensely appreciated!

    Yeah not a problem. It does seem though that if you did not have a Time Machine backup then you may not be able to recover the deleted folder :/ But for future reference to prevent any of this, a Time Machine backup is a great investment.
    What it does is create an entire backup of your computer anything from personal information down to the screen saver.
    What you first need is a new external hard drive (I would recommend a 1TB or higher just to prevent running out of space soon).
    after that, just plug in the drive to your computer.
    once it is plugged in, in the top right hand corner, close to the wi-fi symbol, you should see a symbol that looks like a clock with a backwards arrow around it.
    click on that and select "open time machine preferences"
    just turn the button to the "on" position, and select the backup drive and Time Machine does the rest
    very great tool
